As you can see the board game features some of the lavish artwork from the video game with a brilliant map and some wonderful cards for the various factions you’ll no doubt be fighting with.

The Banner Saga game’s combat system always felt like it would work well on a board game so it’s neat to see it come to life in this form. What we’re missing from the pictures are images of the models that Megacon are working on for the game (yes, it comes with models!).

You can just about see them in the bottom right of the first image showing off one of the Varls (the Giants with horns!) and possibly a bow armed woman.

Hopefully we’ll see some work in progress pictures of them soon.

Are you as excited for this as I am?
